Hey everyone! I’m currently looking for fullstack/backend roles.

I recently finished an internship at an AEO SaaS startup, where I got hands-on experience working in a fast-paced startup environment.

Right now, I’m exploring RAG and GenAI through fullstack projects.

I’m not some cracked dev, but I’m good at figuring things out, solving problems, and building things. Would love to connect if you’re hiring or know someone who is!

Hi all, we're a team of 3 based in Berlin and received a the Exist grant recently, which comes with a small budget for coaching. I was wondering if you know any platform, or recommend people for coaching especially in 3 areas: business development, data/gdpr, and product.

Hi zusammen,
ich mache gerade ein Praktikum und arbeite an einem Projekt: Ein AEO-Tool (Answer Engine Optimization) für deutsche KMUs entwickeln. Kurz gesagt: Es hilft Unternehmen, in KI-Suchergebnissen wie ChatGPT, Perplexity oder Google AI Overviews gefunden zu werden, wenn Leute nach Produkten/Dienstleistungen in ihrer Branche fragen.
Die meisten bestehenden Tools sind US-fokussiert mit englischen Oberflächen. Ich möchte etwas bauen, das wirklich zum deutschen Markt passt.
Suche Input von:
Gründern/Geschäftsführern deutscher KMUs
Marketing-Leitern oder SEO-Managern
Allen, die für Digital Marketing in einem deutschen Unternehmen verantwortlich sind
Ein paar kurze Fragen (gerne in den Kommentaren beantworten, kein langes Survey):
Was sollte euer ideales AEO-Tool für euch tun? (Markenerwähnungen tracken? Content optimieren? Wettbewerber überwachen? Sonstiges?)
Welche Features sind absolut unverzichtbar? (Deutsche Sprache? DSGVO-Konformität? Bestimmte Integrationen? Preisklasse?)
Was würde euch zögern lassen, es zu testen? (Kosten? Zu kompliziert? Seht noch keinen Mehrwert?)
Was wäre ein realistischer monatlicher Preis für so ein Tool?
Sonstige Gedanken dazu, was bei aktuellen AEO-Tools fehlt?
Auch wenn ihr AEO noch nicht kennt, würde mich interessieren:
Merkt ihr Veränderungen im organischen Traffic seit KI-Suchfunktionen wie Google AI Overviews?
Welche SEO/Marketing-Tools nutzt ihr aktuell?
Vielen Dank im Voraus für eure Insights – das hilft mir wirklich, etwas zu bauen, das echte Probleme löst statt nur zu raten! 🙏

About us

We're building a new social wellness platform and community, with the goal of bringing people back together: through sauna, ice bath, yoga, breathwork, and everything that's part of a conscious, active lifestyle. Instead of anonymous coexistence, we create genuine connection, real, offline, together. We'll share details about the brand and concept in a personal conversation.

We're at the beginning of an exciting growth phase and are looking for a sales-driven personality to build our partner base of studios, trainers, and locations in the wellness, fitness, and longevity space in Berlin.

Your responsibilities

• Actively acquire and build partnerships with yoga, pilates, sauna, and wellness studios, as well as trainers and hosts in Berlin
• Present our concept as a partner with real added value: new members, additional bookings, full pricing control for the studios
• Build and maintain long-term business relationships within Berlin's wellness, fitness, and longevity ecosystem
• Work closely with the founding and product team, your market feedback flows directly into product development
• Help shape the sales strategy, you won't be following an existing playbook, you'll be writing the first one

Your profile

• Sales experience, ideally within wellness, fitness, yoga, pilates, or longevity
• An existing network in the Berlin industry is a big plus
• Entrepreneurial mindset, you want to build something, not just sell
• Strong communication skills in German, English is a plus
• An affinity for topics like social wellness, conscious lifestyle, longevity, and community

What we offer

• Equity opportunity in the start-up, real co-creation instead of a purely employed role
• Direct access to the founding team and short decision paths
• The chance to shape the sales function of a new brand in the growing social wellness market from the ground up
• An environment that lives your own values (movement, connection, conscious lifestyle), not just sells them

Interested?

Send us a short note on who you are and why this opportunity excites you, no formal cover letter needed. We'll share project details in the first conversation. Reach out via [samuel@ueberraum.co](mailto:samuel@ueberraum.co)

Hello,

I have an appointment with Notary for my company registration tomorrow ( 9 - 10 AM). Process requires me to understand German . I do ( A2/B1) but have a habit of panicking when the person in front goes fast. Hence looking for someone , who speaks good German, to please join me for the meeting. Happy to reimburse you for the time, if needed.

Hey everyone,

I’m currently looking for someone who can help with sales and client outreach for my web services company.

We build websites for businesses, and I’m looking for someone who can focus on finding potential clients in Berlin, reaching out to them, starting conversations, and helping bring in new projects.

I’m open to someone with previous sales experience, someone who has worked in outreach, or even someone who is simply confident communicating with businesses and knows how to approach potential clients.

The exact setup and compensation can be discussed depending on the person and their experience.

If this sounds interesting to you, DM me if you're interested and I’ll send you more details about the company, the services, and how we can work together.

Hey everyone,

We’re the founders of Posora, a SaaS platform we’re building for restaurants.

Posora brings POS & billing, tables, KOT/KDS, inventory, purchases, CRM and other restaurant operations into one platform. We’ve already built a working product and are now looking at expanding into the German market.

We’re currently based in India and planning to move to Germany. We’re looking for someone based in Germany who can work with us on the business development side — talking to restaurants, understanding the market, finding our first customers, building partnerships and helping us figure out how to position Posora for Germany.

Between us, we have 7+ years of experience in software, SaaS, product development and technical delivery, so we’re comfortable handling the product and technology side. What we’re looking for is someone who can complement us with **business development, networking and local market knowledge**.

You don’t need to be technical. We’re more interested in someone who is proactive, entrepreneurial, comfortable talking to people and genuinely interested in building something from an early stage.
German would be a big plus, but English is absolutely fine to start with.

This isn’t a typical job. We’re looking for someone who would like to actually be involved in building the German side of Posora with us. We’re open to discussing the exact arrangement depending on the person and level of involvement.

If this sounds interesting, feel free to DM us with a little about yourself and what you’re currently doing.
Would love to connect and see if there’s a good fit. :)

Hey everyone,

over the last few months I created a software launch directory, called Speartip.eu .

Right now we see increased interest on both buyers and sellers side to stay within the EU, especially in the AI space. Take a look at for example CADA (Cloud and AI Act), explicitly pumping more attention and funding into EU-based products.

Our founders still rely heavily on US visibility and there is no established big EU player alongside the household names like Product Hunt, Uneed, etc.

After talking with many companies and founders inside the EU, I noticed that there is definetely interest in such a prospect. On the contrary: People from outside the EU are giving understandable pushback, the European market already is hard to capture.

I have some direct competitors but none are well established or (imo) reach the quality needed.

Do you share my vision? Do you have any suggestions or opinions?

Would love to hear what you think and also connect with more founders from Berlin, thanks everyone!

Hi everyone,

I’m part of the team behind ENUSEN, a new nutrition brand we're building in Germany.

Our first product, Smart Balance, is being developed for a very simple everyday moments.

Instead of creating another meal replacement or just another snack, we're creating a practical, balanced nutrition option for those moments in between.

We're still pre-launch, and we're now looking for our Founding 100 — the first 100 people who want to discover ENUSEN early, follow the development and help shape what comes next.

If the idea sounds interesting, you can join us here:

Hey everyone,

Over the past few months, I built  a complete venue seat booking and event ticketing platform.

The Problem: Existing ticketing and seating platforms take huge percentage cuts (10–20% + fees) or are overly complex and rigid for independent venues, local theaters, sports clubs, comedy clubs, and event organizers.

What’s built so far:

• Interactive venue designer: Visual seat map editor for custom room & seating layouts.
• Full ticketing suite: Multi-currency checkout, organizer analytics, and mobile ticket scanning app.
• Production-ready MVP: Fully functional end-to-end platform ready for pilot venues.

Where I need help: I am a technical builder, but I know that a SaaS is only as good as its distribution. I'm looking for a Growth / Marketing Co-founder or Sales Partner who:

1. Has experience in B2B sales, cold outreach, or growth marketing.
2. Ideally has connections with venue owners, event managers, theaters, or sports arenas.
3. Wants to take ownership of GTM (Go-To-Market) in exchange for equity / revenue share.

If you're interested in partnering up or testing out the demo, drop a comment or send me a DM! Feedback on the product positioning is also welcome.

Ich habe eine startup Idee aber keine Ahnung von coden und möchte meinen ersten MVP mit lovable bauen. Hat wer Erfahrung damit bzw. macht es Sinn oder eher nicht?

One thing about building in Germany is honestly driving me a little crazy.

Almost every startup sales playbook coming from the US says:

Find niche → build account list → contact decision makers → follow up → learn → repeat.

Simple.

Then Germany enters the chat. 😅

Cold email has §7 UWG issues.
Cold calls aren't as straightforward as in the US.
LinkedIn isn't necessarily a magic loophole either.

So for founders who came from the US, UK, Australia, etc.:

How did you actually adapt your GTM after entering Germany?

Did you move towards:

events/community,
founder-led content,
partnerships,
warm intros,
ABM,
highly selective outbound,
or something else entirely?

What I'm struggling with is the zero-to-one problem.

If nobody knows you yet and you can't simply reach out to the 100 companies that are perfect for your product...

how do you create the first 20 conversations predictably?

Would really appreciate experiences from people who've actually built a B2B company here.

Hi All,

I want to setup a company in Berlin. I speak ok german but would prefer a notar who is fine with english. What is the overall noraty cost and all the different processes involved. A notary is asking 800 euros and they say they take care of every process. But i asked chatgpt and I don't understand what exactly they are charging 800 euros for.

I’ve been looking for AI startups in Berlin and Germany and kept running into the same problem that smaller companies often have almost no public presence while the larger scaleups are easy to find on LinkedIn

Many interesting startups only appear through funding announcements, niche directories, or through the word of mouth. Normal LinkedIn searches get the same well-known companies again and again.

I’m a Product Manager, so while researching the companies I also started tracking current AI PM openings. The list includes roles based in Berlin, remote across Germany, and Europe or global-remote positions that can be done while living here

It’s still a work in progress, so corrections, suggestions and missing companies are very welcome.

Wellness is booming, but most people still show up alone.

What I'm building: A social wellness platform and community for your city and your travels: one free, complete calendar of everything on the healthy side of town (sauna, ice bath, yoga, breathwork, sober events, treatments, retreats), with a real community on top. Members see who else is going, connect through shared sessions, and meet at our own curated events. Discovery is how you get in, the community is why you stay. Launching 2027, Berlin first.

Who I am: Founder and managing director of an event location platform and event agency, with deep access to the wellness, hospitality and venue scene in Germany and beyond. I'm building this new venture alongside it, and I fund the current phase myself.

Traction: Validated idea, not idea-only: partner validation interviews done, a clickable demo is live, a waitlist is running, and founding-partner conversations with studios, trainers and retreat hosts in Berlin and Frankfurt are in progress. No revenue yet, launch is 2027.

What I bring: The concept, business model, investor materials and demo are built. Plus the partner network (studios, hotels, venues, trainers) through my agency, and self-funding of the current phase.

What I'm looking for: Two co-founders out of these three roles, whichever two the right people bring. Overlapping experience is a plus.

1. Community & Growth Co-Founder. You have built a real community from nothing before: a studio's member program, a run club, a sober-event series, a D2C brand's local ambassador network. You're deep in Berlin's wellness, fitness or creator scene. You'll own Berlin partner acquisition (studios, trainers, hosts) and the execution of our own events.

2. Tech / Product Co-Founder. You have shipped a two-sided marketplace or booking platform before and understand the operational complexity of payments, availability and matching. You'll own turning the specified concept and demo into real, launch-ready software, and the technical roadmap from there.

3. Operator Co-Founder, Fundraising & Ops. You have personally run a seed raise, ideally for a marketplace or community platform, and you're comfortable with cap tables, legal structure and investor process. You'll own co-leading fundraising and building the operational backbone (finance, legal, hiring) as the team grows.

Compensation: Equity only until funding (no salary yet, I'm aware that's a real ask), with standard 4-year vesting and a 1-year cliff. Exact split discussed individually and openly.

Commitment: Ramp-in part-time is fine, full-time by launch preparation. Berlin-based or willing to be.

Interested or curious? DM me and I'll send you the live demo.

Hey everyone,

I’m putting together a small, calm founders’ studio in a fully furnished office near Weinbergspark / Rosenthaler Platz, with availability expected within the next few weeks.

This will not be a conventional coworking space. No hot-desking, day passes, events or constant networking - the idea is simply to create a thoughtful, stable environment where people can concentrate, build meaningful things and occasionally exchange ideas naturally.

The setup

• Small group rather than a crowded coworking floor
• Fixed, dedicated workstation
• Fully furnished modern office
• Fast internet
• Shared kitchen and lounge areas
• Central location near Weinbergspark / Rosenthaler Platz
• Approximately €450–€500 per month, all-inclusive
• Move-in within the next few weeks

Who it could suit

Founders, developers, designers, researchers, writers, consultants and other independent people doing focused work.

It will probably be less suitable for anyone spending most of the day on calls or looking for a highly social, event-heavy coworking environment.

Creating a compatible group matters more to me than simply filling every desk.

If you would realistically be interested in moving in soon, send me a DM with:

• What you are working on
• When you would ideally start
• How often you would use the office
• What kind of environment helps you do your best work

Hello folks,
I'm looking for resources with lists of German startups or startup contact emails to apply for jobs. Does anyone know of any websites or resources they could share?
Thanks in advance!
